Boarding process

Once you have checked-in, find out which boarding gate you have to go to and get there on time. You are required to identify yourself through security at the boarding gate for international flights 30 minutes before the expected flight departure and for domestic flights 20 minutes before departure, or your reservation will be canceled.

Arrival at the airport

On arrival at the airport, you are required to allow yourself enough time to check-in and board your plane. For international flights, you are required to arrive three hours in advance. For domestic flights, arrive one hour and a half in advance.

Baggage

Properly close luggage, mark it with up-to-date information, and take off labels from previous trips.

Remember that we offer you services that allow you to make the best use of your time:

You can check-in for your flight and choose your seat before arriving at the airport to avoid waiting in line. Check your baggage at the Web Check-In line. If you do not have any, you can go straight to the boarding gate. For international flights, you are required to show up at the boarding gate 45 minutes before flight departure. For domestic flights, you are required to identify yourself half an hour before your flight's departure. You will be able to use this service between 1 and 24 hours before your flight departure.

You can access the online check-in from your smartphone when visiting copa.com, which allows you to use an electronic boarding pass at the airport. The mobile boarding pass can be used from these cities.

In other cities, you are required to show your electronic boarding pass at the Web Check-In desk, where your boarding pass for your flight will be printed for you.

Copa Airlines allows its customers to speed up the check-in process at the Hub of the Americas by making check-in and boarding kiosks available. The kiosks allow you to complete the check-in process or, if you want, you can simply print your boarding pass, if you have completed the Web Check-In process. In addition, you can choose or change your assigned seat in the aircraft and add your ConnectMiles number to your reservation.
